Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Object of the Invention] (Field of Industrial Application) The present invention relates to a vehicle seat belt guide device.

(Prior Art) Conventionally, as a means for ensuring the safety of an occupant in an accident, for example, there is a well-known seat belt shown in FIG.

That is, the center pillar 101 is provided with a mounting portion 105 of the shoulder anchor 103 and the base portion 1 of the belt arm 107 together with the mounting portion 105.
09 is rotatably attached (arrow) and pillar trim 111
The shoulder belt 113 extending from the inner side to the outer upper side has its direction changed by the through ring 104 of the shoulder anchor 103, and further, the ring portion 115 of the belt arm 107.
It has a structure that is supported through.

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) As described above, since the belt arm 107 is rotatable, the buckle in which the tongue 117 provided on the shoulder belt 113 is incorporated into the floor panel, the seat, etc. When it is coupled to the shoulder belt 113, the shoulder belt 113 moves up and down in accordance with the movement of the shoulder belt 113 to ensure the smooth feeding of the shoulder belt 113. Since the shoulder anchor 103 and the base portion 109 of the belt arm 107 are exposed because they are directly attached to, it is not desirable in terms of appearance and is particularly suitable for high grade vehicle models that require a high quality sense. Was difficult to adopt.

In this case, it is possible to improve the appearance by providing the shoulder anchor 103 inside the pillar trim, but there is a problem that the belt arm 107 that moves up and down in response to the movement of the shoulder belt 113 cannot be attached. A great deal of design and assembly man-hours are required to prevent this from happening.

Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a seat belt guide device for a vehicle, which is superior in appearance while securing an improvement in belt feeding performance.

[Structure of the Invention] (Means for Solving the Problems) In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, in this invention, the pillar inner panel is arranged inside a pillar trim having a belt through hole and an arm through hole. A mounting member for a shoulder anchor adapted to guide and support the seat belt fed out from the winding device from the belt through hole to the outside of the pillar trim, and an end portion side protruding upward from the arm through hole so as to be vertically movable. The seat belt extended to the outside of the pillar trim is pierced at the front end of the pillar trim, and the base portion arranged inside the pillar trim and the shoulder anchor attachment member are rotatably attached to the belt arm.

(Operation) According to such a seat belt guide device, the shoulder anchor and the base portion of the belt arm are located inside the pillar trim, and therefore are not directly visible from the outside. In addition, the belt arm moves up and down in correspondence with the seat belt to ensure a smooth guide and guide for the seat belt.

(Embodiment) An embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings of FIGS. 1 to 4.

In the figure, 1 indicates a center pillar of the automobile 3. The center pillar 1 is composed of a pillar outer panel 5 and a pillar inner panel 7, and the entire area of the pillar inner panel 7 is covered with a pillar trim 9, and a predetermined space 11 is secured between the pillar trim 9 and the pillar inner panel 7. ing. A winding device 13 (retractor) is fixed to the pillar inner panel 7 below the space 11. The seat belt 15 fed from the winding device 13 is a three-point seat belt including a shoulder belt 15a for restraining the upper body of the occupant and a lap belt 15b for restraining the waist, and the area of the shoulder belt 15a is Shoulder anchor 1
It is pierced and supported by 7 and extends from the belt through hole 19 to the outside of the pillar trim 9.

The shoulder anchor 17 is arranged above the center pillar 1, the mounting member 21 is inside the pillar trim 9, and the shoulder anchor 17 is attached to a mounting hole 23 of the pillar inner panel 7 together with a base portion 29 of a belt arm 27 described later by a fixing bolt 25. Installed on.

The pillar trim 9 in the region where the shoulder anchor 17 is attached serves as a removable cover trim 31.

The cover trim 31 is formed of the same material as the pillar trim 9 and is formed in an angle shape including a front surface 31a and a side surface 31b, and a plurality of hooks that engage with the opening edge 9a of the pillar trim 9 in a releasable manner. The claw 33 is provided. Also,
The belt through hole 19 and the working hole 35 are provided on the side surface 31b, and the front surface 31a.
Arm through holes 37 are provided in each of them. Working hole
35 is provided at a position facing the head of the fixing bolt 25 to which the shoulder anchor 17 is attached, and by using the working hole 35, the fixing bolt 25 can be tightened and removed. The working hole 35 is normally closed by a cap 39.

The arm through hole 37 has a vertically long shape and is closed by a shutter 41 that can slide up and down.
The belt arm 27 passes through the shutter 41.

The belt arm 27 is formed in an inverted L shape, and the base portion 29 is rotatably attached to the attachment hole 23 of the pillar inner panel 7 together with the attachment member 21 of the shoulder anchor 17 by the fixing bolt 25. Also, the belt arm extended to the outside
A ring portion 43 is provided at one end 28 of 27, and a shoulder belt 15a extending outward from the belt through hole 19 is penetratingly supported by the ring portion 43. As a result, the belt arm 27 can be moved up and down (arrow A in FIG. 1) in response to the movement of the seat belt 15, and the amount of upward rotation is substantially horizontal by the stopper 45 fixed to the pillar inner panel 7. It can be rotated up to the state.

Further, the seat belt 15 penetratingly supported by the ring portion 43 of the belt arm 27 is provided with a tongue 47, which is detachably connectable to a buckle (not shown) assembled to the vehicle body side.

In FIG. 2, 49 is a front pillar and 51 is a rear pillar.

According to the seat belt guide device configured as described above, the shoulder anchor 17 and the base portion 29 of the belt arm 27 are located inside the cover trim 31, so that they are not directly visible from the outside and the appearance quality is secured.

Next, when holding the tongue 47 and connecting it to a buckle (not shown) on the vehicle body side, as shown in FIG.
The belt arm 27 moves up and down in response to the movement of 15, so that the seat belt 15 fed out from the belt through hole 19 is smoothly guided and guided.

[Effects of the Invention] As described above, according to the seat belt guide device of the present invention, the seat belt can be smoothly guided and guided, and the shoulder anchor and the base of the belt arm face the inside of the pillar trim, which is attractive. Can be improved.
